@SenRandPaul
I joined @LlamasNBC on @NBCNews and made it clear:
I refuse to add $2 trillion more to the debt, no matter which party demands it. Republicans and Democrats both flip-flop for politics. I won't back endless deficits or Biden-era spending levels.

Hey Rand, will you back the Constitution by supporting the dismantling of the 805+, $3+ trillion unconstitutional portion of the federal gov’t including but certainly not limited to the patently unconstitutional federal meddling and commandeering of healthcare?
He does support all that but wants to get there slowly with a Penny Plan , incremental cuts every year
He’s one of the few leaders in DC who actually respects the Constitution.
100% YES, but you need to talk to the other 99 Senators and 435 Congressmen, from the Democrat and RINO parties. Rand Paul can't do it by himself.
We are beyond incremental cuts. Not bashing Rand. We just need to take a sledge hammer to it.
Yep.... go change and join the democrats, rand...
rand paul is nothing but a antiTrump fake republican, just out to grift whatever he can get to advance himself
No, he is an egotist and narcissistic, living on principles so high no real work can ever be accomplished.
Perfect is not achievable and I tire of him ruining good enough for his unobtainable perfection.
No, but he could certainly do a better job of promoting the dismantling of the unconstitutional portion of the feds.
Haven't heard hardly a peep out of him about it, even though the unconstitutional portion of the feds is America's greatest enemy BY FAR and dismantling it would solve most of the problems including the deficit (not to mention oppressive taxation) Rand rails about.
Perfect Rand Paul, the enemy of the good.
He is NOT representing WE THE PEOPLE...the majority who want to keep the government open. It’s not about him...

An egotist narcissistic just like his father.
No, America will disappear by then.
He needs to take a page out of Musk's handling of DOGE and Vivek's proposals and promote massive cuts NOW.
How would you know that would be the right thing to do? Among other things, because of the relentless, heightened opposition, and (death) threats from the Left as when Musk was in charge of DOGE.
This is WAR, Baby. Rands wants to play pattycake when he needs a bazooka.
He is not very smart if he thinks joining in with the folks who want to spend us into bankruptcy is the way to a balanced budget.
I go back to an old post of mine...I understand why Paul's neighbor kicked the crap out of him.
This obnoxious, arrogant prick, even though he is a great eye surgeon, gets zero sympathy from me.
As a senator, he is as bad as his old man was as a house critter.
Both self centered, spoiled brats.
Rand, ESAD.
RandFan, get help.
Shut it down and keep it shut. This give’s Trump a free hand to do reduction in forces, perhaps enough to wreck Northern Virginia and turn it back red.
I think most of you are being too harsh on Rand in this instance.
The level of ‘free’ stuff has become absurd.
The federal government should not be funding housing.
Every state has land, lumber and stone to build affordable housing.
As for DC, people doing work for the federal government should having housing priority.
They wont even vote for the Penny Plan!
Only half the GOP does and NO Democrats.
You need to look at your GOP senator(s) as PGR so eloquently put it
What do you want him to do? He certainly wont be voting for a “deal” involving trillion dollar deficits
He’s better than a RINO.
Why has he riled you?
Because he doesn’t want Biden’s spending? WHAT ? Listen to your own advice
